Purple Haze in Ramadi

U.S. Army Soldiers from the 2nd Brigade Combat Team, 28th Infantry Division and Iraqi army soldiers use smoke to cover their movements during a gun battle in Ramadi, Iraq, May 13, 2006. DoD photo by Photographer's Mate 2nd Class Samuel C. Peterson, U.S. Navy. (Released)

From JCCC.

It seems the gear we're seeing the Iraqi soldiers equipped with improves on regular basis. Murdoc wonders how much of this improvement we're seeing is real and how much is simply a matter of photo selection by the military and/or the government.

What? Are you even going to try and claim that we made that smoke without using chemicals?
